Chicago Pneumatic Tool Specifications
Reference tables for choosing and checking Chicago Pneumatic air tools: impact wrench specifications you can search by model or drive size, air use by tool type, and bolt torque charts. Tell us the fastener, the torque target or the tool you run now and we’ll match it.
Specifications from the Chicago Pneumatic catalog
Peak removal capability, not a controlled tightening specification.
Consumption while the tool is doing work. Do not mix it with average air ratings.
A fastener and joint target, not automatically the required tool output.
